This is the most bogan commentary team I've ever heard.

They should be in a tri coloured Commodore commentary car on the hill.

One of the women just said that "hawthorn play some of the funest footy she's seen"

    Feel like we are one down in the midfield without Hore. Would love to see them throw Goldie back in there.

    The good:

    Hanks, Gall, Goldy, Blaithin, McNamara 

    The Bad, Hawks in space and bursting from stoppage while we look slow

    The ugly: Kelly Underwood hasn’t called a single MFC player correctly. Chaplin was Goldy twice, Hanks was McNamara. FCS. It’s your one job as a commentator! Know the players names and numbers!

    How can someone stripping the ball out of Hanks hands be an incorrect disposal free kick?

    Anyways, mids going ok but our forwards and backs seem to be walking around the packs a little too much.

    Gone back to over handballing again. Kick the thing, that is what won us the past couple of games.

    STOP OVERHANDBALLING 

    STOP OVERHANDBALLING 

    We win by getting territory and winning the next contest 

    Stop going back to what lost us games !!!

    We have been unlucky so far. Bounce of the ball, few umpiring calls, hawks miskicks falling in their lap etc. But got to keep it close here while hawks feel like they are on top.

    Just added that. I don’t feel like we are out of this at all but they do have the momentum

    Every stoppage seems too open. Seems to really suit Hawthorn. Bring up an extra and congest/outnumber and I think we will get much more ball forward.

    we're lucky to be only 13 points down

    Hawks have more run and moving the ball better. they are better around the ball as well

    going to be an uphill battle in the second half. not sure what we can chnage here.

    Geez we miss Kate Hore. With Beasley out as well we just don’t have the midfield rotations. Also Fitzy seems to be running with Bates who is just torching her with her gut running. 
    That said the call against Zanker in the marking contest was total rubbish. Perfect bodywork in the side, no different to McDonough’s work at the other end. Good to see free kick Hawthorn transcends gender.🙄
    Cmon girls! Find a way!

    Such a shame to lose Hore and Chaplin pregame as we just need that extra little bit of depth in this game. We will need to make it a grind and be more efficient in F50 to take the win from here. They will kill us if the r game remains this open.

    Also, geez Jas Fleming is quality. Not quite the level of my fave Hanks but very very good.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
